I'n not impressed


6-Year-Old's IQ Is Higher Than Einstein's
AOL.com

An Ohio 6-year-old has something only one in a million people have: an IQ of 176 or above.

Cincinnati.com reports that young Pranav Veera, who likes video games and playing outside like any other child, is anything but typical.

The Loveland boy can say the alphabet backwards and list the names of U.S. presidents in the order they served in office. If you give him any date going back to 2000, Veera can tell you what day of the week that was. He also appears to have a photographic memory.

Even Albert Einstein didn't score as high on the intelligence charts as Veera: The legendary genius' IQ was thought to be about 160.

"He's an amazing child," said Marci Taylor, Veera's kindergarten teacher. "He knows so much, yet he's probably more excited about learning than any child I've ever seen. He shakes with excitement."

Whatever. You know what. Rain Man can remember a lot of shit too but I'm pretty sure I can take him in a checkers match. This kid is probably going to end up strung out on heroin because he can't take the pressure of being a genious. I'm just bitter because I'm an idiot.
